Masquerada: Songs and Shadows

Witching Hour Studios

Synopsis

Unravel the facades enshrouding the city of Ombre in Masquerada, a 2.5D isometric action RPG set in a dark Venetian fantasy world where people with masks are the only ones who can cast magic. This empowers the masked aristocrats, the Masquerada, to lord it over the impoverished Contadani.

Against this backdrop of class warfare and conspiracies of fey creature manifestations, players experience the journey of five flawed members of the Masquerada who struggle to rediscover faith in their diverse pasts and backgrounds.

Masquerada features pauseable real-time combat, allowing players to exert finer control over their party’s battle positioning as they issue orders to attack or cast magic. Characters hail from three different class types similar to rogues, tanks and mages, whose different skills enable powerful synergies against enemies.
